Title: The Phantom Child
Author: A.J. Wills
Publisher: Cherry Tree Publishing
Publication Date: February, 2024
Genre: Thriller
Pages: 316
My Rating: ★★★★☆
Karina is living every mother’s worst nightmare when her son disappears on a family holiday to Turkey. But what is even stranger, is that no one seems to believe her. Can she find him? Or did he never even exist to begin with?
What a page turner! Filled with unlikable characters, this book is utterly chilling. I kept changing my mind as to whether Karina was totally crazy, or not, and it’s one of those stories where you feel like you can’t trust anyone.
I did find Karina, herself, unlikeable as well though. Utterly gullible, naive and unhelpful to her own plight, which frustrated me somewhat. I wanted to scream at her in points for being such an idiot! I enjoyed the fast pace, especially the ending.
A quick, easy and entertaining read.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Cherry Tree Publishing for my advanced copy.
